Well, I don't know of any Giant grocery store here in So. Cal., but what is the nutritional information? What size is a serving, how many calories per serving, how much fat, how much carbs, how much Protein?

My wife gets a sugar free lemon loaf from our local market, and she thinks it is great. But when we look at the nutritional information, it might be sugar free but it is still loaded with calories, fat, and carbs. She hates it when I say it, but sugar free doesn't mean low calorie and healthy.

Yeah, I know I am a killjoy. Sorry.

BTW, for thanksgiving dessert I am making a crustless pumpkin ricotta bake (http://theworldaccor...cotta-bake.html). Serving Size: 1/2 cup, 137 calories, 5g carbs (1g sugar, 1g fiber), 9g fat, 9g Protein.< /p>

@@toasty I don't think you're a killjoy at all! Here's my own pumpkin pie recipe and it is oh so tasty, especially for only 77 calories and 9g of protein!!! ^_^

Crustless Protein Pumpkin Pie

1 - 15 oz can pumpkin (not pie filling)
½ cup egg whites
1½ cups Premier Protein vanilla shake
¾ cup Splenda
½ tsp salt
2 Tbs pumpkin pie spice

Preheat oven 400°. Beat all ingredients together until smooth and creamy. Pour in pie pan sprayed with non-stick cooking spray. Bake at 400° for 15 minutes, then turn down to 375° and bake for 45 minutes or until a knife inserted in center comes out clean. You can also pour into 16 (sprayed with non-stick cooking spray) cupcake tins. I like using silicone inserts.

It is best served cold and can even be frozen. Serving size is 3 minis or 1/6 slice of pie. Sometimes I'll top a slice with Greek yogurt (pic) but Nutrition info is for pie only.

@@shelleylester I am so sorry. I reread my post, and I think I was out of line. Absolutely having a piece of pie every once in a while is great, especially when you have been so successful in your weight loss. And finding one that is sugar free is awesome. Please accept my apologies for sounding so self righteous in my post.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
